Description of Aquincola tertiaricarbonis ATS 74

Cells are Gram­stain­negative, rod shaped, and nonflagellated. After 3 days at 25℃ on R2 A medium, colonies are circular, convex, glistening, and white colored. The result from the API 20NE tests show positive for urease and esculin hydrolysis; but negative for nitrate reduction, indole production, glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase, cytochrome oxidase, β ­galactosidase, and gelatinase. D- Mannitol, D- glucose, D- mannose, N ­acetyl­glucosamine, D- maltose, potassium gluconate, malic acid, trisodium citrate, and phenylacetic acid are utilized; but not L- arabinose, capric acid, and adipic acid. Strain ATS74 (= NIBRBAC000508882 ) was isolated from soil in Gangdong­gu (37°34 ʹ 01.4 ʺ N, 127°08 ʹ 59.3 ʺ E), Seoul, Korea. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain ATS74 have been deposited in GenBank under accession numbers OK384557 .
